Let it go

You know sometimes
you think you're right on target
You know you're getting there
by bits and pieces
A cuckoo clock and central heating
A carpet in the kid's room
and corner seating
A bit of garden with a hanging basket
For you to look at
through the kitchen window
It was a world - it was made with love
To last
Not break up…
Let it go

You know some days
you wake up bad days
Something strange about the weather
A sudden wind blows dust and cinders
And spoils the food that's ready
waiting on the table
A crooked grin from a randy stranger
Sets the cat among the pidgeons
Windows crack and doors fly open
and something
Snaps like bone…
Let it go

You know sometimes
there's no connection
Days and nights spin round
like something's broken
You forget how you
used to walk on water
Making miracles like any normal Jesus
You know I only ever
gave you of my best
I never guaranteed
I'm better than the rest
And if a dirty smile
from a wanton angel
Stops the world…
Let it go
Let it go, let it go
It don't mean nothing
It don't mean nothing
Let it go!
